Our EU brothers and sisters have been unfairly taxed by an unfair tax system.
Not only that...there are very few Starbucks in Europe. People are forced to live in old houses in old towns. They have to eat strange foods in restaurants that allow smoking. They have to watch soccer instead of the NFL. They have to wait to watch new episodes of Curb Your Enthusiasm until they come out on DVD. They are sometimes forced to look at topless women who should have kept their tops on on public beaches. And some don't even shave their armpits! Also, many have to drive on the wrong side of the road and speak in foreign languages.
It's only fair you make things right again. Choose an EU resident inworld and give him/her as much of your $L as possible.
These poor buggers don't have what we Americans have. Hell, they can't put up a picture of G.W. Bush in their home without facing ridicule. Giving them our money inworld is the very least we can do.
We kick their ass in the olympics every year (at least the summer games...the ones that count). Let's kick their ass in the generosity department too!
USA! USA!

Good old Trent. Why should we help them out when all they do is complain about American morals/ethics/presidents/war policy/sports?  |

I just gave 50% of my lindens to an avatar named Hans. Now I find out he's from New Jersey. Needless to say, he is not returning my IMs.

You come to the US and drop a pile of euros in each of our RL businesses, and we'll go back to subsidizing your SL VAT with our worthless currency, lol!

I might know him. Our cousins should consider themselves lucky if they are bereft of Starbucks. It's pretensious, overpriced crap.
